Montana's Cowboy Lyrics

Out in Montana

Far from Atlanta

A lonesome cowboy

And a cattle convoy

Been travelin' all day

And started dancing away

To the sounds of the coyotes

And the bleatin' of mountain goats

To the sounds of the rustling leaves

And wind howlin' through the trees

And he danced all night long

To the sounds of nature's song

One winter mornin'

His mama was a groanin'

He called the doctor at once

Who said she had but a couple months

But all she wanted was a final chance

To watch her cowboy dance

To the sounds of the coyotes

And the bleatin' of mountain goats

To the sounds of the rustling leaves

And wind howlin' through the trees

And he danced all night long

To the sounds of nature's song

One day a young man

Came to steal this cowboy's land

His name was Texas Red

And he shot the cowboy dead

And as the cowboy fell he

Danced away and said farewell

To the sounds of the coyotes

And the bleatin' of mountain goats

To the sounds of the rustling leaves

And wind howlin' through the trees

And he danced all night long

To the sounds of nature's song

Where there's a settin' sun

This cowboy's soul will run

But at his restin' place

He shares a warm embrace

Dancin' with his mama

In the skies of Montana

Dancin' with his mama

In the skies of Montana

Dancin' with his mama

In the skies of Montana
